Introduction
This section contains specific information about the VC3500J control, which is a single-channel control.
Overview
Since the VC3500J is a single-channel control, the main screen displays the delay dimension in the upper left corner
of the screen and the pattern dimension in the upper right corner of the screen. The lower portion of the screen
displays a figure that enables the learn mode when pressed. Once the learn mode is enabled, the control measures
the product length, subtracts the delay dimension on both the leading and trailing edges, and enters the remaining
length into the pattern dimension. The control then glues any products that pass under the product scanner.
Installation of Product Scanner
In order to achieve optimum measurement capability, care must be taken in locating the product scanner and
adjusting its sensitivity. To install the product scanner, follow these steps:
1. Locate the product scanner 1-2 inches above the product.
2. Apply power to the glue control.
3. Place product 0.75 to 1.00 inches below normal product travel.
4. Turn the adjustment screw counterclockwise until the LED is not illuminated.
5. Adjust the product scanner sensitivity by turning the adjustment screw clockwise just until the LED illuminates.
Electrical Installation of Remote Learn Button
The cable used to connect the remote learn button to the VC3500J control should have a minimum of two conduc-
tors (18-22 AWG) and a shield.
To connect the remote learn button to the control, follow these steps:
1. Insert the remote learn button cable into the control enclosure through a cord grip located on the bottom panel of
the control.
2. Connect the remote learn button cable to the three-terminal connector labeled “scanner 2”.
Connections are as follows:
Pin 1: No connection
Pin 2: Signal
Pin 3: Return
3. Connect shield wire to the protective earth (P.E.) terminals located near cord-grip base plate.
4. Tighten the cord grip used by the remote learn button cable.
